The craziest part is the redacted statements when talking about other sec schools that offered or gave cash.

Just watched the first two parts. It's crazy that one journalist seems to have an easier time undercovering this **** than a billion dollar corporation.. unless the corporation would end up investigating the very entity that made it rich in the first place!!

Pay the players already. The 'amateurism' debate is a ******* joke! Kids are taking bags anyway.. nobody cares. Not the ppl supposedly enforcing the rules, not the ppl paying, and definitely not the universities benefiting.

That may have something to do with the fact that he wanted to know what was going on and the NCAA not so much.

It's almost as if having schools controlling the organization that regulates them is a bad idea.

LSU offered 60k MSU OFFERED 80k.

If schools are offering a LB out of BFE Mississippi... imagine the going rate for SOFLA kids.

And people on here thought no croot was getting bags this heavy.

Like I said before. The bags are the heaviest they been.

$80K?

Over four years - that's only $385 a week.

Been telling you guys - the SEC has a system.

Most folks think, "Ho Li Crap! $80K?" Whereas the SEC thinks "$400 a week? $500 a week? $800 a week? Nothing to it!"

You can absolutely find 25 boosters who can afford up to a thousand a week. To bring in top talent.

To perpetuate winning.
 
I'm all for the NCAA allowing players to be paid, but that really wouldn't solve anything.

Say you can pay each player $25k. Well UGA is still going to have its boosters funnel $300k more to Tyrique Stevenson + whatever car he wants + a house for his mom in Atlanta.

As long as the NCAA is run by a SEC alum like Emmert, this shady, illegal bags system will go on

Not all recruits take bags or even seek them out but it's available to every big recruit. People are absolutely fooling themselves when they say otherwise.
 
Anyone who doesn't think high rated players all over the country & especially in South Fla aren't getting paid is simply naive.

I know for a fact that bags get dropped because I've personally seen it with my own eyes going back to even when I was in High School.

The difference between the bags now & 10 years ago is the upfront money. Back then, they didn't pay players so much upfront it was mostly backend promises once the player was signed & in the program. But, because Bama has completely ratcheted up the system by flooding the game with cash every other program has had to up the ante & start paying as high as 10K just to book unofficials. That's not the price for every player, but the elite 4/5-star kids are 100% getting paid for their interest in a school, which forces some teams to either jump the gun too early or get steamrolled by the Bama's, UGA's, Oh st, Clemson's & USC's of the world.

There are some schools who understand how to be discreet about it, but there are other schools where they make it obvious & it's actually apart of their recruitng pitch. They literally tell kids, "you come here you'll get paid, you go there you'll be wasting your time sitting on the bench with nothing to show for it".

Then when you add on High School & 7v7 coaches who are also getting paid to deliver kids to certain schools, plus the various ways in which they can funnel cash to prospects it's a pretty tough system to beat if you're not playing the game as well.
